    7.4 bowled him round his legs! Goes for the sweep, gets too far across, misses and it clips leg stump. Nissanka can't quite work out what happened. Just clipped the leg bail 23/1

    32.3 through him! Lyon strikes. Slides on from round the wicket, Karunaratne is on back foot, he is late bringing the bat down and gets the toe end into the leg stump. That's some lovely variation by Lyon 93/2

    60.2 has Carey got him?! He's confident. Lovely piece of bowling. Spins and bounces past the edge as Chandimal presses forward. More lovely glovework from Carey. Did the back foot lift or drag? Nothing behind the line, he's gone 150/6

    38.3 edged, gone! That's loose from Mathews. Very wide outside off, touch of drift takes it wider, he reaches well away from the body, gets a thin edge which is well held by Carey. Mathews batted himself into a hole 101/3

    45.6 golden arm does it! Smith pouches the edge at slip! Head shakes his hand suggesting his spinning fingers are on fire again! Good length, fourth stump, some decent spin, not the length or line to force off the back foot, he tries to punch from the crease and gets a thick edge that flies quickly to Smith at slip and he pouches it beautifully 126/4

    46.2 steered to gully! Great catch by Webster! 138kph, full and wide, very full, hint of tail away, he square drives half-heartedly and steers it off a thick edge low to Webster and it disappears into the big Tasmanian buckets in the gully 127/5

    83.4 caught behind! Too much pace. 144kph, good length, scrambled seam angled across, he was caught on the crease unsure whether to play or leave, tried to withdraw the bat late but gets a touch through to Carey 215/7

    83.5 taken at slip! Great catch by Smith! Starc on a hat-trick. 137kph, good length, angled across on off, he's caught on the crease pushing down the wrong line, he gets a thick edge and Smith moves low to his left to take the catch 215/8

    86.1 bowled him! 85kph, tossed up into the footmarks outside off, he plays for too much turn, it beats the outside edge as he is barely beyond the popping crease with his front foot and crashes into off 224/9
